Project Basement - Level in Ballard cont'd

This 4x10 beam is resting on top of a number of (I believe) 20 ton jacks that span the length of the south side of the house (and north as well, tomorrow). The west portion needs to come up a couple inches, more so on the northwest side than the southwest and more so on the southwest than the northeast.

It'll become a bit more clear tomorrow as tomorrow is jacking day. I'm looking forward to having a level house and Heidi is looking forward to having things solid beneath us again. To that end, Mike believes he'll actually have the downstairs framed at some point next week...so these pictures should really start to take shape!
